Luka Doncic Makes NBA Postseason History In This Jordan Sneaker
Dallas Mavericks’ star point guard Luka Doncic continues to make history within the NBA’s bubble at the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida.
This time, the sophomore player opted for Jordan Brand’s latest Jordan React Elevation sneaker yesterday while facing off against the Los Angeles Clippers. Doncic stuffed the stat sheet scoring 43 points, grabbed 17 rebounds, had 13 assists and hit the game-winning shot in 45 minutes of play. With his performance last night, he became one of three players in the NBA playoff history to record a 40-point, 10-rebound, 10-assist game and became the youngest player in the postseason to have a 40-point triple-double.

Doncic opted for the colorful “White/Hyper Violet/Flash Crimson/Black” iteration of the Jordan React Elevation that boasts a mid-cut knit upper that provides lockdown but is also light and durable. The shoe’s standout feature is the split-midsole that offers responsive Zoom Air cushioning at the forefoot for energy return while the heel’s Nike React foam gives wearers a comfortable ride. Fans can buy the Jordan React Elevation now on Nike.com for a retail price of $120.
Prior to last night’s game, the 21-year-old also added his name to the record books by becoming the youngest player in the league’s history to lead the season in triple-doubles while wearing the Jordan Jumpman Diamond. Game 5 for the seven-game series between the Mavericks and the Clippers will tip-off on Aug. 25 at 9:00 p.m. EST.
